You sound like you're either being paranoid or a showoff about it. I don't take any medications either and I don't make a big deal out of it.

dave you do kinda go on about it like HOLY FUCK I AM SO REMARKABLE

davenotdead 08.26.2009 12:52 AM

i'm the same.

i've gotten weird reactions before...

like my feet got sunburned once and they got swollen real bad for 3 days.
then i had a weird neck rash once for like a week [it looked terrible and itched horribly]... and i had these bubbly pus-filled boils on my right forearm but i'm pretty sure those were from a poisonous plant in costa rica. [occurred 2 weeks after i got back tho].

and i do sneeze and get cloggy nose sometimes when its real dusty or if people don't clean up their pet hair.... but that's pretty normal and it really doesn't affect me much

the way i worded it made it sound like that i guess. i didn't write "none" in real small letters on purpose, that's just how i write.

i have plenty of physical flaws guys. just not of the sickly variety.

getting a cold is interesting though... i only get a cold like once a year or so. when i do it lasts at least a week though. i cough up tons of flem and it goes through different degrees of flem... when its weak light flem i know i've prolly got at least a few days left. once i'm not coughing much, and its just the once-in-a-while hard cough with a nice dark/malty flem, then i'm good in a day or 2.

Only one person in this thread bashed on on chiros and you weren't even talking to them. We all know they can do great work, but it's not like their magical magicians who can cure every ailment of the human body. It would be either incredibly stupid or naive to think so. And I know you already said they couldn't cure stuff like cancer... but I don't believe you really think they can cure as much as you appear to be saying.

Satan 08.26.2009 01:08 AM

wait who was it, me? because i said it didnt do shit for my condition, im sure they can do wonderful things for people with probs that can be helped by chiropractors.

I am anti chiro, as so far as ANY bone manipulation goes. But I guess that's what happens when yr around enough fitness professionals/those in the fitness industry. Core strength, exercising with a trainer who understands YOUR body, and muscular massage do a lot more for preventing nervous and spinal problems than any chiro ever could.

davenotdead 08.26.2009 01:50 AM

r u srs? fitness trainers? you choose people with 2-year degrees over people who do 4 years of uni and then 4 years of chiro school?

davenotdead 08.26.2009 01:50 AM

its like the damn middle ages in here.

pbradley 08.26.2009 01:53 AM

I agree.

No, I choose people with over 30 yrs experience in helping people recover from injuries and maintain their bodies.. people with MS, people who are severely autistic, people who are paraplegic, people who have weight problems, people who have had various joint reconstructions. How exactly could a chiro help even half of those types of people? It's all very well to say "well the chiro helps me stay fit and I've never been sick". Perhaps you are of the minority of people who would not ever get sick IN THE FIRST PLACE. The real test is when someone HAS an illness or injury, what works to help them recover? What can prevent it from happening again?

At the elite sports institute my partner's sister is attending, they have full access to GP, physio, massage, psychologist, dietician.. but no chiro. funny that. Her whole LIFE and STUDY is about keeping her body at peak performace.


You can sit there on yr ass and talk about how healthy you are and how the chiro is fabulous, but if you've never had a severe injury, and you are not someone who works in the health industry or understand it, you don't have a clue.

phoenix 08.26.2009 02:00 AM

No really, I'd LOVE for you to tell me how a chiro would go about treating someone with MS or severe autism. :)
